OERM - April, 2013

The Orange Empire Railroad Museum is located in Perris. If you have not been out there you should make it a point to go. Who doesn't like trains? :-) The grounds are free to walk. You have to buy a $12 ticket if you want to ride any of the working vehicles (weekends only). In addition to trains they have rail, trolley, and street cars that ran in LA and other parts of the country. The barns are filled with interesting and unique old stuff. Some restored, some waiting to be restored. Docent Norm was terrific in providing a free guided tour and letting us crawl all over and inside many of the cars. Well worth the trip.
